Global approximations for the γ-order Lognormal distribution

Thomas L. Toulias (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

A generalized form of the usual Lognormal distribution, denoted with γ , is introduced through the γ-order Normal distribution γ , with its p.d.f. defined into (0,+∞). The study of the c.d.f. of γ is focused on a heuristic method that provides global approximations with two anchor points, at zero and at infinity. Also evaluations are provided while certain bounds are obtained.

On the uniform convergence of double sine series

Péter Kórus, Ferenc Móricz (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let a single sine series (*) k = 1 a k s i n k x be given with nonnegative coefficients a k . If a k is a “mean value bounded variation sequence” (briefly, MVBVS), then a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniform convergence of series (*) is that k a k 0 as k → ∞. The class MVBVS includes all sequences monotonically decreasing to zero. These results are due to S. P. Zhou, P. Zhou and D. S. Yu. In this paper we extend them from single to double sine series (**) k = 1 l = 1 c k l s i n k x s i n l y , even with complex coefficients c k l . We also...

Convergence of greedy approximation I. General systems

S. V. Konyagin, V. N. Temlyakov (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We consider convergence of thresholding type approximations with regard to general complete minimal systems eₙ in a quasi-Banach space X. Thresholding approximations are defined as follows. Let eₙ* ⊂ X* be the conjugate (dual) system to eₙ; then define for ε > 0 and x ∈ X the thresholding approximations as T ε ( x ) : = j D ε ( x ) e * j ( x ) e j , where D ε ( x ) : = j : | e * j ( x ) | ε . We study a generalized version of T ε that we call the weak thresholding approximation. We modify the T ε ( x ) in the following way. For ε > 0, t ∈ (0,1) we set D t , ε ( x ) : = j : t ε | e * j ( x ) | < ε and consider...

Pointwise convergence of nonconventional averages

I. Assani (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We answer a question of H. Furstenberg on the pointwise convergence of the averages 1 / N n = 1 N U ( f · R ( g ) ) , where U and R are positive operators. We also study the pointwise convergence of the averages 1 / N n = 1 N f ( S x ) g ( R x ) when T and S are measure preserving transformations.

Generalizations to monotonicity for uniform convergence of double sine integrals over ℝ̅²₊

Péter Kórus, Ferenc Móricz (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We investigate the convergence behavior of the family of double sine integrals of the form 0 0 f ( x , y ) s i n u x s i n v y d x d y , where (u,v) ∈ ℝ²₊:= ℝ₊ × ℝ₊, ℝ₊:= (0,∞), and f: ℝ²₊ → ℂ is a locally absolutely continuous function satisfying certain generalized monotonicity conditions. We give sufficient conditions for the uniform convergence of the remainder integrals a b a b to zero in (u,v) ∈ ℝ²₊ as maxa₁,a₂ → ∞ and b j > a j 0 , j = 1,2 (called uniform convergence in the regular sense). This implies the uniform convergence of the partial...

Regular statistical convergence of double sequences

Ferenc Móricz (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The concepts of statistical convergence of single and double sequences of complex numbers were introduced in [1] and [7], respectively. In this paper, we introduce the concept indicated in the title. A double sequence x j k : ( j , k ) ² is said to be regularly statistically convergent if (i) the double sequence x j k is statistically convergent to some ξ ∈ ℂ, (ii) the single sequence x j k : k is statistically convergent to some ξ j for each fixed j ∈ ℕ ∖ ₁, (iii) the single sequence x j k : j is statistically convergent...

Convergence of greedy approximation II. The trigonometric system

S. V. Konyagin, V. N. Temlyakov (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study the following nonlinear method of approximation by trigonometric polynomials. For a periodic function f we take as an approximant a trigonometric polynomial of the form G ( f ) : = k Λ f ̂ ( k ) e i ( k , x ) , where Λ d is a set of cardinality m containing the indices of the m largest (in absolute value) Fourier coefficients f̂(k) of the function f. Note that Gₘ(f) gives the best m-term approximant in the L₂-norm, and therefore, for each f ∈ L₂, ||f-Gₘ(f)||₂ → 0 as m → ∞. It is known from previous results that in...

The right tail exponent of the Tracy–Widom β distribution

Laure Dumaz, Bálint Virág (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

The Tracy–Widom β distribution is the large dimensional limit of the top eigenvalue of β random matrix ensembles. We use the stochastic Airy operator representation to show that as a the tail of the Tracy–Widom distribution satisfies P ( 𝑇𝑊 β g t ; a ) = a - ( 3 / 4 ) β + o ( 1 ) exp - 2 3 β a 3 / 2 .

On the UMD constant of the space N

Adam Osękowski (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let N ≥ 2 be a given integer. Suppose that d f = ( d f ) n 0 is a martingale difference sequence with values in N and let ( ε ) n 0 be a deterministic sequence of signs. The paper contains the proof of the estimate ( s u p n 0 | | k = 0 n ε k d f k | | N 1 ) ( l n N + l n ( 3 l n N ) ) / ( 1 - ( 2 l n N ) - 1 ) s u p n 0 | | k = 0 n d f k | | N . It is shown that this result is asymptotically sharp in the sense that the least constant C N in the above estimate satisfies l i m N C N / l n N = 1 . The novelty in the proof is the explicit verification of the ζ-convexity of the space N .

Nilakantha's accelerated series for π

David Brink (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We show how the idea behind a formula for π discovered by the Indian mathematician and astronomer Nilakantha (1445-1545) can be developed into a general series acceleration technique which, when applied to the Gregory-Leibniz series, gives the formula π = n = 0 ( ( 5 n + 3 ) n ! ( 2 n ) ! ) / ( 2 n - 1 ( 3 n + 2 ) ! ) with convergence as 13 . 5 - n , in much the same way as the Euler transformation gives π = n = 0 ( 2 n + 1 n ! n ! ) / ( 2 n + 1 ) ! with convergence as 2 - n . Similar transformations lead to other accelerated series for π, including three “BBP-like” formulas, all of which are collected in...

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

For bounded functions f on an interval I , in particular, for functions of bounded p-th power variation on I there is estimated the rate of pointwise convergence of the Bezier-type modification of the discrete Feller operators. In the main theorem the Chanturiya modulus of variation is used.

Maximally convergent rational approximants of meromorphic functions

Hans-Peter Blatt (2015)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let f be meromorphic on the compact set E ⊂ C with maximal Green domain of meromorphy E ρ ( f ) , ρ(f) < ∞. We investigate rational approximants r n , m of f on E with numerator degree ≤ n and denominator degree ≤ mₙ. We show that a geometric convergence rate of order ρ ( f ) - n on E implies uniform maximal convergence in m₁-measure inside E ρ ( f ) if mₙ = o(n/log n) as n → ∞. If mₙ = o(n), n → ∞, then maximal convergence in capacity inside E ρ ( f ) can be proved at least for a subsequence Λ ⊂ ℕ. Moreover, an analogue...

Premium evaluation for different loss distributions using utility theory

Harman Preet Singh Kapoor, Kanchan Jain (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

For any insurance contract to be mutually advantageous to the insurer and the insured, premium setting is an important task for an actuary. The maximum premium ( P m a x ) that an insured is willing to pay can be determined using utility theory. The main focus of this paper is to determine P m a x by considering different forms of the utility function. The loss random variable is assumed to follow different Statistical distributions viz Gamma, Beta, Exponential, Pareto, Weibull, Lognormal and Burr....

We show that if a decreasing sequence of subharmonic functions converges to a function in W l o c 1 , 2 then the convergence is in W l o c 1 , 2 .

Some duality results on bounded approximation properties of pairs

Eve Oja, Silja Treialt (2013)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The main result is as follows. Let X be a Banach space and let Y be a closed subspace of X. Assume that the pair ( X * , Y ) has the λ-bounded approximation property. Then there exists a net ( S α ) of finite-rank operators on X such that S α ( Y ) Y and | | S α | | λ for all α, and ( S α ) and ( S * α ) converge pointwise to the identity operators on X and X*, respectively. This means that the pair (X,Y) has the λ-bounded duality approximation property.

On the double Lusin condition and convergence theorem for Kurzweil-Henstock type integrals

Abraham Racca, Emmanuel Cabral (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Equiintegrability in a compact interval E may be defined as a uniform integrability property that involves both the integrand f n and the corresponding primitive F n . The pointwise convergence of the integrands f n to some f and the equiintegrability of the functions f n together imply that f is also integrable with primitive F and that the primitives F n converge uniformly to F . In this paper, another uniform integrability property called uniform double Lusin condition introduced in the papers...

A-Statistical Convergence of Subsequence of Double Sequences

Harry I. Miller (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The concept of statistical convergence of a sequence was first introduced by H. Fast [7] in 1951. Recently, in the literature, the concept of statistical convergence of double sequences has been studied. The main result in this paper is a theorem that gives meaning to the statement: s = s i j converges statistically A to L if and only if "most" of the "subsequences" of s converge to L in the ordinary sense. The results presented here are analogue of theorems in [12], [13] and [6] and are concerned...

Some generalizations of Olivier's theorem

Alain Faisant, Georges Grekos, Ladislav Mišík (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Let n = 1 a n be a convergent series of positive real numbers. L. Olivier proved that if the sequence ( a n ) is non-increasing, then lim n n a n = 0 . In the present paper: (a) We formulate and prove a necessary and sufficient condition for having lim n n a n = 0 ; Olivier’s theorem is a consequence of our Theorem . (b) We prove properties analogous to Olivier’s property when the usual convergence is replaced by the -convergence, that is a convergence according to an ideal of subsets of . Again, Olivier’s theorem is a consequence...

Scale-free percolation

Maria Deijfen, Remco van der Hofstad, Gerard Hooghiemstra (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We formulate and study a model for inhomogeneous long-range percolation on d . Each vertex x d is assigned a non-negative weight W x , where ( W x ) x d are i.i.d. random variables. Conditionally on the weights, and given two parameters α , λ g t ; 0 , the edges are independent and the probability that there is an edge between x and y is given by p x y = 1 - exp { - λ W x W y / | x - y | α } . The parameter λ is the percolation parameter, while α describes the long-range nature of the model. We focus on the degree distribution in the resulting graph, on whether...

Convergence of minimax structures and continuation of critical points for singularly perturbed systems

Benedetta Noris, Hugo Tavares, Susanna Terracini, Gianmaria Verzini (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In the recent literature, the phenomenon of phase separation for binary mixtures of Bose–Einstein condensates can be understood, from a mathematical point of view, as governed by the asymptotic limit of the stationary Gross–Pitaevskii system - Δ u + u 3 + β u v 2 = λ u , - Δ v + v 3 + β u 2 v = μ v , u , v H 0 1 ( Ω ) , u , v > 0 , as the interspecies scattering length β goes to + . For this system we consider the associated energy functionals J β , β ( 0 , + ) , with L 2 -mass constraints, which limit J (as β + ) is strongly irregular. For such functionals, we construct multiple critical points...

Hereditarily Hurewicz spaces and Arhangel'skii sheaf amalgamations

Boaz Tsaban, Lubomyr Zdomsky (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

A classical theorem of Hurewicz characterizes spaces with the Hurewicz covering property as those having bounded continuous images in the Baire space. We give a similar characterization for spaces X which have the Hurewicz property hereditarily. We proceed to consider the class of Arhangel’skii α 1 spaces, for which every sheaf at a point can be amalgamated in a natural way. Let C p ( X ) denote the space of continuous real-valued functions on X with the topology of pointwise convergence. Our...
